  • The Startup Ecosystem in Poland by Pilot, 2Nd Edition.Key
    Pilot Guide pilot.co/guides/1 The Startup Ecosystem in Poland A comprehensive introduction to the Polish startup scene The Startup Ecosystem in Poland If you’re an entrepreneur or investor, there should be a new spot on your radar: Poland. While still in its infancy and at the rear of more vibrant hubs like London or Berlin, startup ecosystem in Poland shouldn’t be missed when looking out for a developing entrepreneurial scene in Europe. The first steps were already taken there—the ecosystem is rapidly catching up with its western cousins. Poles have everything that’s needed: ideas, motivation and enthusiasm, world-class engineers and designers. But the entrepreneurs still lack an easy-to-follow path. Talent on demand. pilot.co/hire-talent The Startup Ecosystem in Poland Fortunately, this is changing. New coworking spaces emerge, and accelerating programs bloom all over the country, day by day. Events like Startup Weekend, Reaktor, Hive or niche Geek Girls Carrots pop out on industry calendars—and shape the startup panorama of the country. Entrepreneurs usually rely on nest eggs, whether that’s theirs or from their close ones, however a significant capital injection is brought to locals by approachable European Union funds. Despite the funding, a few startups have made it all the way to Silicon Valley accelerator programs like Y Combinator or 500 Startups, setting the example and encouraging other entrepreneurs to make a go of the new type of business. As the startups in Poland multiply and grow, we’re bringing out this guide for everybody interested in understanding the—already vibrant —ecosystem in our country.

  • Press Release
    Brussels, 10 May 2021 EU Startup Summit with Commissioner Mariya Gabriel Action Plan to Make Europe the new Global Powerhouse for Startups EU Commissioner Mariya Gabriel will today (10th May) meet with leading independent startup ecosystem leaders from across the 27 member states, who will officially unveil their “Action Plan to Make Europe the new Global Powerhouse for Startups“. The initiative, supported by 27 national EU startup organisations, aims to increase the number of unicorns (privately owned companies valued at over $1 billion) tenfold in Europe over the next ten years. Today’s ceremony will see startup leaders formally deliver their Action Plan to Commissioner Gabriel, who has responsibility for Innovation, Research, Culture, Education and Youth in the EU. The initiative also represents a strengthening of relations between the startup sector and the European Commission. Currently, EU27 boasts more than 80.000 startups, of which 51 are unicorns. The investments raised by European startups totalled 41 billion US dollars in 2020, up from 36,6 billion US dollars in 2019. It has been reported that during Q1 2021 27 innovative European companies got a valuation of more than 1 billion US dollars, based on their latest funding round. At first glance, this is very positive news. However, a closer look reveals that only 7 of them are indeed present in the EU27 and committed to remain there after the funding round, which paints a much bleaker picture. In the same period, the US produced 67 new unicorns. “There is no reason why Europe could not outperform the US and China with respect to unicorn creation.

  • Success Factors of Startups in the EU—A Comparative Study
    sustainability Article Success Factors of Startups in the EU—A Comparative Study Eulalia Skawi ´nska* and Romuald I. Zalewski Department of Economy and Management, University of Zielona Góra, 65-417 Zielona Góra, Poland; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +48-600-033-122 Received: 13 August 2020; Accepted: 1 October 2020; Published: 5 October 2020 Abstract: The paper focuses on key success factors of startups in the European Union. Startup companies have a massive potential to boost the level of innovation and competitiveness of national economies. They are also uniquely equipped to provide extremely effective and flexible ways of meeting both existing and emerging market needs. However, the development of these microventures differs from country to country. Hence, we put forth a hypothesis that strategic success factors in the development of startups vary in highly developed and catching-up countries. Our main goal was to determine the key success factors of startups in the EU, and to classify the gap between developed and lagging Member States. For this purpose, we applied the method of component analysis on startup data available for selected the EU states. We managed to isolate 5 components explaining 72% of data variability, all of which can be linked to human capital as well as to formal and informal economic institutions. The results confirmed the validity of our hypothesis. We established that more developed countries offer an institutional competitive advantage to startups, while the gap in success factors between highly developed and catching-up countries can be attributed to human capital and to institutions.

  • Characteristics and Specificities of Local Innovation Accelerators
    sustainability Article Characteristics and Specificities of Local Innovation Accelerators: A Case of Poland Konrad Szczukiewicz 1,* and Marek Makowiec 2 1 ShelfWise, 33-332 Cracow, Poland 2 Department of Organizational Behaviors, Institute of Management, College of Management and Quality Sciences, Cracow University of Economics, 31-510 Cracow, Poland; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] Abstract: Accelerators are one of the most recent and prominent institutions that support start-up development. The phenomenon of accelerators impacts academia as well as policy makers and practitioners. However, the research on accelerators is still very scant and the majority of research concerns the most prestigious and successful American accelerators. The purpose of this paper is to outline the characteristics of Polish accelerators and their specificities, with the focus on the differences between public and private accelerators. The collateral aim of the authors was to describe characteristics and components of an innovation accelerator and its placement in the ecosystem of institutional support for start-ups. The first part of the study focuses on the definition of an accelerator, the review of relevant literature and the differences between other well established institutions such as incubators and business angels. The second part of the study presents the current state of accelerators in Poland. It is observed that the majority of the accelerators in Poland are publicly funded and accelerators avoid taking equity in accelerated start-ups. This is an effect of the competition from public accelerators, which offer a sizable equity-free grant of 200,000 PLN. This study enriches the research on different models of local accelerators and their acceleration programs.

COVID-19 has changed the way we live and work, bringing about an unprecedented leap of digitalization. This abrupt change helped some businesses take off and drove others to the ground. There was a time before the pandemic, and there will be a “time thereafter” - hopefully soon. While we are here and now, let’s figure out where we stand. The impact of the pandemic on European startup ecosystems has not been uniform. To better understand its extent, we embarked on a journey through various startup scenes, big and small. We took the first Profile Picture in Poland, close to our home. While COVID-19 was an essential stimulus to this analysis, we wanted to dig deeper. To gain a more comprehensive understanding of what’s happening in the ecosystem, we contacted more than 20 international and local venture capital funds active in Poland. We hope that the findings will improve your understanding of the Polish VC ecosystem and help you navigate your actions in these turbulent times.

  • FINTECH GUIDE POLAND 2018: Ultimate Guide to Financial Technology in Poland
    BRAINCODE FINTECH GUIDE POLAND 2018: Ultimate Guide to Financial Technology in Poland Poland is the biggest FinTech market in Central and Eastern Europe, with an estimated value of €856 million. Warsaw, home to nearly 45% of startups in the country is also a hub of financial technology in the region. The Global Financial Centres Index (GFCI) ranks capital of Poland as the 12th most competitive major Financial Centre in CEE, and 45th in the world. Just 5 years ago the term “FinTech” was not widely known in Poland. Despite this, local financial institutions were one of the most innovative in Europe. It hasn’t changed since then. The ’Welcoming Innovation Revolution’ report by GE Global Innovation Barometer 2016 shows clearly that 83% of Polish companies are highly interested in new technologies. And 2018's edition of the report proves that the innovations in Poland are driven mainly by SME’s. The banks are great examples of ventures that are driving innovation. They constantly invest in improvements and novelties in various areas, such as modern sales channels (including online channels), remote client service technologies, digitalisation of traditional branches or new payment methods. As a result, about 15,5 million Poles uses banking services online at least once a month, according to Polish Bank Association. The use of mobile banking technologies is widely spread too. 38 Poland is also one of the most attractive markets in terms of outsourcing. Currently, there are 524 foreign companies with Business Process Outsourcing (BPO), Shared Services Centres (SSC) and Research and Development hubs (R&D) employing over 244.000 people (according to ABSL).

    European Startup Monitor EUROPEAN STARTUP MONITOR 2019/2020 Welcome Startups are a critical element for the economic vitality of any country. They also are the pipeline for SMEs and future high-growth firms. Across Europe, startups contribute to make countries economically and socially vibrant by redefining the technological landscape and creating the markets of tomorrow. In November 2016 the European Commission adopted an initiative to improve the economic and regulatory framework for startups and scaleups. Within the context of such initiative, and given the dedicated SME strategy foreseen by the Commission’s President Ursula von der Leyen in her political guidelines, it is important to analyse the potential of startups as future drivers of economic growth and job creation within the European Union. Furthermore, this analysis will provide insights to help policy makers design strategies that foster the development of these important actors. By gathering the views and opinions on the needs and challenges facing startups directly from their founders, the European Startup Monitor 2019/2020 ofers profiles of current startups and highlights the challenges linked to their various stages of development.
